Moreover, the shadow instantly covered their Going Merry, and it was growing larger and larger, showing no signs of stopping.
"Wow, it's huge!!!"
The group of people immediately began to frantically deal with the situation.
"Hard to starboard... wait, I said hard to starboard, why is the ship sailing to the left and rear? Who's ruddering... Zoro?! Who told him to touch the rudder?!" Nami's almost frantic voice added a touch of joy and energy to the calm, temporarily still sea.
On the other side, the East China Sea.
The naval branch near Shellstown.
Vice Admiral Garp received the traitor Axeman Morgan as ordered, but due to his carelessness, or perhaps he simply fell asleep halfway through, he did so.
Monka seized the opportunity and staged a scene that made him famous as the "Axe King".
Then, the pink-haired, timid, and chubby Coby showed his character, which caught Garp's attention, and he planned to take him back to headquarters for some serious training.
When a military medic approached to inquire about his injuries, Garp waved his hand to indicate that he didn't care.
Then, from the bloodstained chest, he pulled out two wanted posters.
"That Luffy guy really did go to sea and become a pirate..."
He smacked his lips, crumbs of senbei still clinging to his beard. "Next time I see him, I'm going to teach him a lesson!"
"He might have forgotten the power of my beloved Iron Fist! I'll help you remember it all, Luffy!!"
On the deck, Coby, his legs trembling, still felt his heart racing, but the thought of his future filled his eyes with longing and fervor. "Mr. Luffy, Mr. Link! I'll come to the Grand Line to find you in a while!!"
Whether on the Grand Line or in the East Blue, everyone has their own destiny, striving for a bright future! Meanwhile, on a certain resort island on the Grand Line...
Ah, only someone like me, a high-ranking agent, can enjoy a holiday like this.
A tall, sassy, bespectacled man, smoothing his hair, went on a tirade.
“Mr. 3…”
A little girl next to him, carrying a drawing board and wearing an artist's hat, looked at him expressionlessly, as if she wanted to call out to him.
"Don't call me by my nickname in public, Miss Golden Week."
Mr.3 Gardiner said this in a "modest" manner, then flicked his hair, which was clearly styled into the number "3" on his forehead.
The little girl just looked at him without saying anything, then looked down at the paper in her hand.
"Hmm, Earl Grey's black tea is still the best?"
He took a sip of his black tea with a touch of bourgeois elegance and nodded in satisfaction.
"By the way, Miss Golden Week, you've been looking at that piece of paper the past few days. What's written on it?"
Mr. 3 asked casually while sipping his black tea.
"Task instructions sent by the boss."
The little girl painter showed him the paper with a blank expression.
"puff!!"
Mr.3 spat out a mouthful of black tea.
You should have told me about this sooner!!!
The Grand Line.
After a period of sailing, the Merry had reached its next destination.
"Is this the little garden?!"
A group of people gazed at the rather large island.
"Where exactly is it too small?"
"It looks almost like a secret realm."
"There are lush jungles everywhere, could there be monsters appearing?"
"It would be great if there was a barbecue restaurant here."
"How could such a place possibly exist?!"
The group complained about Luffy's idea and moored the ship at a secluded river mouth.
Meanwhile, all sorts of strange sounds were emanating from the deep jungle.
There were roars of wild beasts and sounds of volcanic eruptions, phenomena that were not typical of a normal island.
This understanding reached its peak when a huge tiger, covered in wounds, staggered out of the forest and lay bleeding on the ground before them.
"This island is dangerous, and... definitely unusual!!"
Nami and Usopp's eyes twitched violently, their faces filled with horror.
"Sanji, bento!! I want a bento!!"
Luffy, however, was trembling all over, with an uncontrollable grin on his face: "I want a pirate bento that's all meat and not a single vegetable!!"
"I smell adventure!!"
His energetic demeanor was simply irresistible...
"Is it adventurous?"
Link rubbed his chin, also becoming interested: "That's quite interesting!!"
He knew that this was a small garden with an environment that was basically the same as that of the Cretaceous period in ancient times.
The sheer variety of dinosaurs is enough to broaden one's horizons and give one a real glimpse into their world!
Given the chance, who wouldn't want to see what the dinosaurs, once the rulers of Earth, looked like?!
Furthermore, Doraemon's first theatrical film was called "Nobita's Dinosaur"!!
This is a classic tribute!!
"Talk about it?! Even Link, you want to go out?!"
Usopp and Nami immediately became anxious.
They immediately became uneasy.
Nami and Usopp could understand Luffy's enthusiasm and his plans to go on adventures.
Link was also planning to leave, abandoning them in this strange, dangerous, and unknown environment... What was he thinking?!
"What are we going to do without you, Link?!"
"Yes, yes, think of your poor, weak, and helpless crew members too, First Mate!!"
Usopp and Nami were practically clinging to Link's legs.
"Don't worry, Sanji and Zoro are here too."
Link comforted her.
The two of them...
Usopp and Nami both glanced at Zoro, who was yawning, and Sanji, who was also looking around the forest with interest.
No! We still think you're more reliable!!
Both of them were extremely unwilling and reluctant to part.
Weiwei was also deep in thought, observing the jungle in front of her.
The unknown and mysterious contained within, along with the thirst for knowledge to explore, suddenly stirred in the mind of this princess who had grown up in the desert and had never seen such a scene before.
"Can I come with you?"
She suddenly spoke up and made a request.
"Huh? How come even you're saying things like that..."
"Because I feel that if I stay here, I might continue to overthink things."
Vivi, a little embarrassed, said to Nami, who was rather eager.
"So I thought I'd go for a walk to clear my head before I finished recording the magnetics."
"Is everything alright?!"
Nami was still somewhat worried, "Putting aside Luffy and Link, isn't this place far too dangerous for you?!"
"No, I think it's safest to stay with the first mate."
Vivi, however, had a different opinion. She watched Link's retreating figure and chuckled softly:
"Didn't you say Link is very reliable? So if we encounter danger, he can definitely handle it perfectly, right?"
"Of course, I certainly won't cause him any trouble."
That's what they say, but...
Nami was about to say something when she saw Usopp suddenly slap her hard with his palm.
"yes!!"
He suddenly realized something, as if he had figured it out: "The most dangerous place is the safest place!!"
Usopp looked at Link with unwavering determination.
"Just like Vivi said, as the most reliable man on the entire ship, Link's side must be the safest!!"
"So, even if he goes deep into this island, as long as we're by his side, there will be no danger or problem!"
"so……"
Usopp took a deep breath and came to his final conclusion:
"Take me with you, Link!! Let me go with you!!"
boom! !
The shouting stopped abruptly.
"You'd better stop now!!"
Nami, with her sharp teeth and white eyes, her fists still smoking, roared at Usopp, whom she had knocked to the ground on the deck.
"Cancel the 5.9 stop! If you all keep messing around like this, I'll be the only one left on the ship!!"
Usopp, who was lying on the ground, asked: "...Kanazaki?"
In the end, Sanji prepared pirate bento boxes for Luffy, Link, and Vivi, and the three set off on their adventure.
Zoro, having just woken up, felt bored and decided to go for a walk.
Since they had caught a giant tuna earlier, the ship had plenty of food reserves, and Sanji didn't have any intention of having Zoro bring back any prey. So, the two of them naturally didn't compare the size of their prey.
A small garden, an ancient island.
Because navigation between the Grand Lines is very inconvenient and there is basically no communication, there is very little contact between the islands.
This led to the development of each island's own civilization.
Some islands have become increasingly advanced, with various technologies emerging one after another.
Some islands, however, have remained stagnant for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, still looking the same.
The small garden falls into this category.
This place still preserves dinosaurs from the Cretaceous period, as well as many other extinct creatures such as ammonites from ancient times.
This is an island fraught with danger, but also brimming with wildness and exceptionally suited for adventure.
After entering the dense forest, Luffy immediately started shouting and yelling, running wildly like a dog that had been let loose.
"Mr. Luffy, Mr. Luffy..."
Even though Vivi kept calling out to him from behind, Luffy seemed not to hear her and quickly disappeared from sight.
"No need to shout anymore, that's just how that guy is."
Link was quite used to Luffy's eccentricities and solo actions.
“…Is it really okay?”
She watched Luffy's departing figure, still feeling somewhat uneasy.
